Seems like the air in here is getting stale... we need some good ol' fishin' talk to bring us back to earth.

This past season, I really got into fishing rough water.. some of you may have seen my other post about this. I fished a lot of spots and times with water so rough that I usually would have gone home. My results were amazing... I found that at night if you can get an eel past the break it's deadly and letting the eel "do it's own thing" seemed to work better than reeling it back into the slop. I also observed some guys doing well on heavy needles (beachmasters). During the mornings of those same nights I used my Pencil Poppers (slowpokes) and extracted many nice fish from the brown frothy surf. I'd be interested to hear other peoples takes on this style of fishing, experiences, lures, impressive catches, theories... whatever you got... let's hear it.
